A Text Book on Shadbala1

1. Introduction

Planet on account of certain positions in zodiac acquire strength & weakness. In orderto assess the exact potency or strength of a planet, it is necessary to scrutinize itsposition in the Zodiac from various points of view. These various sources of strengthare called Balas of planet.

Parashar system recognizes six kinds of strength or potency or Bala of a planet. Theseare :

1. Sthan Bala or Positional Strength2. Dik Bala or Directional Strength3. Kala Bala or Temporal Strength4. Chesta Bala or Motional Strength5. Naisargika Bala or Permanent Strength6. Drik Bala or Aspect Strength

The above six types of strength is known as Shadbala.

Application of Shadbalas :

The basic aim for any astrologer is to achieve accuracy in predictions. The calculationof Shadbalas help in meeting this objective in the following ways :-

1. Shad Balas of all planets give an account of assets & liabilities of each planet in ahoroscope. Therefore one can have good idea about expectations from each planet.

2. By calculating Shadbalas & strength of all houses, it can be found out which ismost powerful amongst Lagna, Moon & Sun. In astrology the predictions areconsidered more accurate from the chart which is strongest out of these three.

3. During main period & sub period, care has to be taken to find out which planet outof these two dosha lords is more powerful or has greater strength. For example ifduring Sun-Moon period, it is observed that Sun has move strength than Moon,then results likely to be achieved by native would be predominantly those indicatedby Sun. Contrary to this if Moon is more powerful, Moon's influence will be felt inpreference to that of Sun even though main period is of Sun.

4. If Shadbalas are ascertained correctly, future predictions can be ventured withsufficient confidence.

2. Sthan Bala or Positional S trength

A Planet gets positional strength by virtue of its occupying a particular sign of Zodiac.This sign may be exalted/debilitated, own, Mool Trikona, friendly, neutral or enemysign. The strength or potency a planet gets due to its occupying a certain degree in asign is known as positional strength.

Calculation of Sthan Bala or Positional Strength

The unit for measurement of strengths of planets is Rupa. One Rupa is equivalent to60 Shashtiamsa or Virupas.

Positional strength consists of following types of strength :-

¼a½ Ochcha Bala or Exaltation strength¼b½ Sapta Vargaja Bala¼c½ Ojayugmarasyams or Yugmayugma Bala¼d½ Kendra Bala¼e½ Drekkana Bala

4 A Text Book on Shadbala

If a planet occupies exaltation point, it gets one Rupa of Ochcha Bala. If it occupiesdebilitation point it gets no Ochcha Bala. From exaltation point to debilitation point,there is a gradual decrease in Ochcha Bala till it reduces to zero at debilitation point.

Ochcha Bala of planet in Virupas or Shashtiamsa = (Difference of planets longitude & its debilitation)

3

If the difference in planets longitude & its debilitation point is more than 180° then thesame should be subtracted from 360° to find Ochcha Bala.

The Ochcha Bala in example horoscope can be calculated as under :

Table I - Ochcha Bala

Planet Longitude Debilitation Difference Ochcha Bala

A Text Book on Shadbala5

(a) Naisargika or Permanent or Natural

This type of relationship is permanent & is not based on position of planets in Zodiac.This relationship is on account of basic nature of planets. This relationship is of theretypes namely Friend. Neutral & Enemy. The rays of planet will be intensified by therays of one declared as its friend & counteracted by those of a planet declared as itsenemy. Naisargika relationship is same in all horoscopes.

Table II - Naisargika or Permanent Relationship

Planet Friends Neutrals Enemies

Sun Moon, Mars, Jupiter Mercury Venus, Saturn

Moon Sun, Mercury Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Sat NoneMars Sun, Moon, Jupiter Venus, Saturn MercuryMercury Sun, Venus Mars, Jupiter, Saturn MoonJupiter Sun, Moon, Mars Saturn Mercury, VenusVenus Mercury, Saturn Mars, Jupiter Sun, MoonSaturn Mercury, Venus Jupiter Sun, Moon, Mars

For understanding above relationship planets can be divided in two groups-one groupconsisting of Sun, Mars, Jupiter & second group consisting of Mercury, Venus, Saturn.Moon is considered as common planet to these groups.

The permanent relationship is based on principle that from Mool Trikona sign of aplanet 2nd, 4th, 5th, 8th, 9th & 12th position lords are its friends, while rest i.e. 3rd, 6th,7th, 10th & 11th position lords are its enemies. The exaltation signs lord of a planet isalways its friend even if it owns 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th & 11th position from Mool Trikonasign.

Let us find out Naisargika relationship of planet Saturn. The Mool Trikona sign of Saturnis Aquarius.

As per above principle we start with Aquarius sign:

6 A Text Book on Shadbala

The position of various planets will be as under :-

Jupiter : Friend (2nd Position Lord) + Enemy (11th position Lord)= Neutral

Mars : Enemy (3rd Position Lord) + Enemy (10th Position Lord)= Enemy

Venus : Friend (4th Position Lord) + Friend (9th Position = Friend Lord as well aslord of exaltation sign)

Mercury : Friend (5th Position Lord) + Friend (8th Position Lord) = Friend

Moon : Enemy (6th Position Lord)= Enemy

Sun : Enemy (7th Position Lord)= Enemy

Therefore Naisargika friends of Saturn are Mercury, Venus, Enemies of Saturn areSun, Moon & Mars whereas Jupiter is neutral to Saturn.

(b) Temporary or T atkalik

As the name indicates this relationship is temporary & depends upon the position ofplanets in Zodiac. This relationship changes with reference to each horoscope. Theplanets in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th & 12th position from a planet become its temporaryfriends whereas those in other houses become its temporary enemies.

Both the above types of relationship are combined & Panchadha Maitree (Five foldfriendship) relationship is obtained as under :-

Temporary Friend + Permanent Friend = Intimate Friend (Adhi Mitra)

Temporary Friend + Permanent Enemy = Neutral

Temporary Friend + Permanent Neutral = Friend

Temporary Enemy + Permanent Friend = Neutral

Temporary Enemy + Permanent Neutral = Enemy

Temporary Enemy + Permanent Enemy = Bitter Enemy (Adhi Shatru)

Therefore five types of combined relationship amongst planet is Friend, Enemy, Neutral,Intimate friend & Bitter Enemy.

3. Dik Balaor

Directional S trength

The strength a planet gets on account of the occupying a particular direction is knownas Dik Bala. In horoscope, the ascendant represents eastern direction, the 7th house(descendant) represents west direction, the 10th house ( Zenith) represents southdirection & 4th house (Nadir) represents north direction.

Jupiter & Mercury get full directional strength when these occupy ascendant. The Sun& Mars are powerful in south i.e. when they occupy 10th house. Saturn gets full directionalstrength in 7th house i.e. in west. Moon & Venus have full directional strength whenthey occupy 4th house i.e. north direction.

The points opposite to powerful points are powerless points which when occupiedgive no directional strength. For example Saturn gets full directional strength in westbut gets Zero directional strength in east. Therefore 180th degree from powerful pointis the powerless point. A planet when approaching its powerful point gains directionalstrength & while reaching the powerless point it gradually loses directional strength.

For finding out directional strength of a planet we have to find the difference betweenplanet's longitude & its powerless point. If this difference is more than 180°, the sameis subtracted from

360°

Dik Bala Arc = Planets longitude ~ its powerless point.

A planet in a direction where it is supposed to be most powerful gets directional strengthof 60 Shashtiamsa. As the powerless point, it gets Zero directional strength. The DikBala of a planet is obtained by dividing Dik Bala arc by 3.

4. Kala Bala or T emporal S trength

This is also known as strength of time. It is calculated by considering year, month,weekday, time etc. of birth. For finding out Kala bala, various potencies of planetaryvibrations due to seasonal peculiarities are scrutinized.

Kala Bala consists of following 9 types of strength :-

1. Nathonnatha or Div ratri Bala2. Paksha Bala3. Tribhaga Bala4. Abda or Varshadipa Bala5. Masa Bala6. Vara Bala7. Hora Bala8. Ayana Bala

9. Yuddha Bala

1. Nathonnatha or Div ratri Bala

Strength a planet gets on account of birth during day or night is known as NathonnathaBala. It consists of Diva Bala (Diurnal strength) & Ratri Bala (Nocturnal strength).

Moon, Mars & Saturn are powerful during mid night whereas at the time of mid day,they are thoroughly powerless. Sun, Jupiter & Venus are powerful during mid daywhereas at the time of mid night they are thoroughly powerless. Mercury is alwayspowerful whether it is day or night. Moon, Mars & Saturn get strength of 60 Shashtiamsaat mid night. Sun, Jupiter & Venus get strength of 60 Shashtiamsa at mid day. Mercuryalways gets strength of 60 Shashtiamsa.

Method of Finding nathonnatha Bala

Method A :

1. Duration of day & night are divided into two equal parts each. We get half part ofday & night.

2. If Isht Kala is from 2nd half part of day to 1st half part of night, it is Natha, otherwiseit is Unnatha.

3. Half part of day is subtracted from Isht Kala. If remainder is less than 30 Ghati, it isNatha.

4. If remainder at Sl. No. 3 is more than 30 Ghati then by subtracting the same from60 Ghati, we get Unnatha.

It is to be noted that duration of half part of day is always to be subtracted from IshtKala & if Isht Kala is less than half part of day then 60 Ghati is added in Isht Kala.

Diva Bala for Sun, Jupiter & Venus = Unnatha x2

Ratri Bala for Moon, Mars & Saturn = Natha x 2

Mercury will always get Divratri Bala of 60 Shashtiamsa.

The details in example horoscope are as under :-

Sun Rise -7 Hrs 17 Mts

Sun Set - 17 Hrs 48 Mts

Duration of day 26 Ghati 15 Pal

Duration of Night -33 Ghati 45 Pal

Half part of day -13 Ghati 7 Pal 30 Vipal

Half part of Night -16 Ghati 52 Pal 30 Vipal

Isht Kala -23 Ghati 27 Pal 30 Vipal

Isht Kala - Half part of day

=23 G27 P30 Vipal - 13 G7 P30 V

= 10 Ghati 20 Pal = 10.3

This being less than 30 it is Natha. Unnatha will be (30G-10G 20P)

= 9 Ghati 40 Pal = 9.7

\ Div Bala of Sun, Jupiter & Venus = Unnatha x 2

= 19.7x2

= 39.4

Ratri Bala of Moon, Mars & Saturn = natha x 2

= 10.3 x 2

= 20.6

Method B : In this case the birth time is converted into degrees & Nathonath Bala iscalculated as under :-

Diva Bala (Sun, Jupiter, Venus) = Birth time in degrees3

Ratri Bala (Moon, Mars, Saturn) = 180°- Birth time in degrees3

The time interval between mid night & mid day is 180°. Birth time is marked accordingto local mean time. The birth time in degrees is converted by converting each hour into15° or 4° minute into 1°. If birth time exceeds 180°, the same is to be subtracted from360°.In example horoscopeTime of birth 16h 40m (IST)Local mean time correction for Delhi is (-2) 21m 08 sec.\ Local mean time of birth is 16h 40m

(-) 21 m 08 sec.16h 18 m 52 sec.

\ Birth time in degrees = 16x15 = 240

(+) 18.8 = 4.7. 4 .

244.7

Since it exceeds 180°, subtracting it from 360° we get (360-244.7) = 1 15.3°

2. Paksha Bala

Paksha Bala is the strength of Paksha or fortnight. Lunar month consists of KrishnaPaksha & Shukla Paksha & each Paksha is equivalent to 15 lunar days. During ShuklaPaksha Moon is increasing whereas during Krishna Paksha Moon is decreasing. Allmalefic planets are powerful during Krishna Paksha or during dark half of lunar month& all benefic planets are powerful during bright half of lunar month or during ShuklaPaksha.

Jupiter, Venus & well associated Mercury are benefics whereas Sun, Mars, Saturn &afflicted Mercury are malefics.

As far as Moon is concerned it is benefic from 8th day of bright half to 8th day of darkhalf lunar month. In the balance days, Moon is considered as malefic.

If Moon's Longitude - Sun's Longitude <180°, it is Shukla Paksha

If Moon's Longitude - Sun's Longitude >180°, it is Krishna Paksha

Following steps are taken to find Paksha Bala:-

(a) Deduct from Moon's Longitude that of Sun's Longitude(b) If (a) exceeds 180°, the same is to be subtracted from 360° to make it less than 180°(c) Divide (b) by 3 which will give Paksha Bala of Benefics.(d) 60-Paksha Bala of Benefics = paksha Bala of Malefics(e) Moon's Paksha Bala as calculated above is always to be doubled.

In example horoscope, Paksha Bala is calculated as under :-

Moon's Longitude = 115° 18'

Sun's Longitude = 277° 52'

Difference between Sun & Moon's Longitude

= 277° 52' - 1 15° 18'

= 162° 34'

162°34* 162-6∴ Paksha Bala of Benefics ¾ ¾ ¾ 54-2

A Text Book on Shadbala19

In the example horoscope Moon is benefic while Mercury is malefic. Moon's PakshaBala will be 54.2x=108.5

3. Tribhaga BalaThe day & night each are divided into three equal parts. Duration of day is from Sun-rise to Sun-set, whereas duration of night is from Sun set to Sun-rise. For finding outTribhaga bala, we have to see in which 1/3rd part of day or night, birth has taken place.Depending on this, one planet gets the strength of 60 Shashtiamsa.

Apart from this Jupiter always gets 60 Shashtiamsa as Tribhaga bala. ThereforeTribhaga bala is obtained only by two planets, one of them is always Jupiter.

Depending upon the part of day or night in which birth has taken place, the followingplanets get strength of 60 Shashtiamsa.

Part of day/Night Planets which get strength of 60 Shashtiamsa

1st part of day Mercury

2nd part of day Sun

3rd part of day Saturn

1st part of night Moon

2nd part of night Venus

3rd part of night Mars

Calculation of Tribhaga Bala in example horoscope

Duration of day = (17H 48M -7H 17M)

= 10H 31M

Time of birth =16H 40M

Therefore birth has taken place in 3rd part of day & therefore Tribhaga bala will be asunder :-

Saturn - 60 Shashtiamsa

Jupiter - 60 Shashtiamsa

4. Abda or V arshadhip a Bala

In this case the planet that rules over the week day on which the year ( Vikrami) beginsis considered. This planet is assigned strength of 15 Shashtiamsa as its Abda bala.

In the example horoscope Vikrami Samvat 2056 started on 15th April 1999 onThursday. Therefore in example horoscope, Jupiter will get Abda bala of 15Shashtiamsa.

5. Masa Bala

Planet who is the lord of the month in which birth has taken place is assigned a strengthof 30 Shashtiamsa as his Masa bala.

In the example horoscope, the month in which birth has taken place commenced or15.1.2002 i.e. on Saturday. Therefore in example horoscope, Saturn will get Masabala of 30 Shashtiamsa.

6. Vara Bala

Planet who is the lord of day of birth is assigned a strength of 45 Shashtiamsa as hisVara bala.

In example horoscope, birth has taken place on Saturday & therefore, Saturn will getVara bala of 45 Shashtiamsa.

7. Hora Bala

A hora is equal to 1/24th part of a day. Each hora is ruled over by a planet. The daybegins from Sunrise & continues till next sun rise. The first hora on any day will be ruledby lord week day. 2nd hora is ruled by lord of 6th week day counted from first. 3rd horais ruled by lord of 6th week day counted from second & so on.

According to Surya Siddhanta, Saturn is the most distant planet from earth. Jupiter,Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury & Moon come next in order of their nearness to earth.

On everyday first hora is ruled by lord of weekday & other lords succeed according toorder given above.

The other simple method of remembering sequence of hora is that first hora on anyday will be ruled by lord of week day. 2nd hora will be 3rd from first in the reverse orderof lord of week days. 3rd hora will be 3rd from 2nd in the same order. For example onany Tuesday first hora will be that of Mars, 2nd of Sun, 3rd of Venus, 4th of Mercury, 5thof Moon & so on.

In the example horoscope sunrise is at 7H 17M & birth has taken place on 16H 40M &therefore 10th hora is ruling from starting hora of lord of week day i.e. Saturn. 10thhora from Saturn is that of Mars.

Horas are to be calculated for mean local time & not for standard time of birth.

In the example horoscope, the ruling hora at the time of birth is that of Mars & thereforeMars will get Hora bala of 60 Shashtiamsa.

8. Ayan Bala

The strength of a planet on account of its situation either towards north or south ofcelestial equator is known as Ayan bala. All heavenly bodies move northwards toequator for sometime & then get southwards. This angular distance from equinoctialor celestial equator is Kranti or declination. Declination is positive when planet issituated in northern celestial hemisphere & it is negative when planet is situated insouthern celestial hemisphere.

Declination is always measured in respect of Sayan longitude i.e. a planet reckonedfrom movable Zodiac point.

(a) Sun after cutting celestial equator in march (Aries sign) moves northward &declination which is positive gradually increases till it is 23° 27' when Sun hasreached last point of Gemini i.e. 90° of Zodiac.

(b) 23° 27' north declination means that Sun has reached northern most point ofnorth celestial hemisphere.

(c) Then declination decreases gradually along with ingress of Sun in Cancer signtill it is 0° when Sun will have crossed equator again to begin his southerlycourse i.e. when Libra ingress takes place.

(d) Now south declination commences. Declination which is now zero increasestill it is 23° 27' when Sun reaches last point of Sagittarius sign i.e. 270°.

(v) Capricorn ingress begins. Declination decreases gradually till it is 0° again whenplanet crosses the equation & begins his northerly course.

23°27*± DeclinationAyan Bala ¾

(a) When Moon or Saturn has southern declination or when Sun, Mars, Jupiter & Venushave north declination, take positive sign & contrary to this take negative sign.

(b) For finding out Ayan bala of Mercury we always take negative sign whetherdeclination is +ve or -ve.

(c) Sun's Ayana bala is always multiplied by 2.

Planet have south declination when Sayana longitude is between 180°-360° & northdeclination when Sayana longitude is between 0-180°.

Method of finding out Declination

For finding out declination, Nirayana longitudes of planets are converted into Sayanalongitudes. This is done by adding Ayanamsa date of birth. Then Bhuja of planets isfound as under :-

(a) If Sayana longitude is less or equal to 90°, it itself represents Bhuja.

(b) If Sayana longitude is more than 90° but less or equal to 180°, Bhuja is found bysubtracting the same from 180°.

(c) If Sayana longitude is more than 180° but less or equal to 270°, Bhuja is found bysubtracting 180° from longitude.

(d) If Sayana longitude is more than 270° but less or equal to 360°, Bhuja is found bysubtracting the same from 360°

At the end of 1st 15°, the declination of planet is 362' of arc.

At the end of 2nd 15°, the declination of planet is 341' of arc.

At the end of 3rd 15°, the declination of planet is 299' of arc.

At the end of 4th 15°, the declination of planet is 236' of arc.

At the end of 5th 15°, the declination of planet is 150' of arc.

At the end of 6th 15°, the declination of planet is 52' of arc.

9. Yudha Bala

Two planets are said to be in Yuddha or war when they are in conjunction & distancebetween them is less than 1°. All planets excepting Sun & Moon may enter into war.The conquering planet is one whose longitude is less.

When two planets are found to be at war in a horoscope; the aggregate of Sthan Bala.Dik bala & Kala bala (upto Horabala) is found in respect of these planets. Differencebetween two aggregates is found & less must be subtracted from greater. Resultingdifference which is Yuddha bala in Shashtiamsa is added to the total Kala bala ofvictorious planet & Must be subtracted from total Kala bala of defeated planet.

In the example horoscope, none of the planet is at war.

Total Kala bala is found by adding together all the 9 types of strength discussed above.

5. Chest a Bala orMotional S trength

Chesta means act of retrogression. Each planet except Sun & Moon gets into state ofretrogression when its distance from Sun exceeds a particular limit. Strength or potencyof a planet on account of arc of retrogression is known as Chesta Bala.

Mars, Jupiter & Saturn are known as superior planets. They are called superior planetsas they appear at all distances from Sun & not confined to particular limit of elongation.

Mercury & Venus are known as inferior planets as they never depart from Sun beyonda certain limit. The maximum distance between Sun & Mercury can be 29° whereasthis distance between Sun & Venus can be 47°.

Chesta Kendra : This is arc of retrogression. This is necessary to find Chesta Bala.To find out Chesta Kendra, it is necessary to understand meaning of following terms:

(a) Mean Longitude : The mean position of a planet is the position which it wouldhave attained at a uniform rate of motion & correction to be applied in respect ofeccentricity are not considered. The mean longitude is reckoned on the assumptionthat orbits of planets are concentric circles. Because orbits of planets are elliptial &not circular, equations are later on applied to the mean position to get true longitude ofplanets. To find out Chesta Kendra, it is necessary to calculate mean position.

(b) Epoch : The epoch is taken at the beginning of 1st January 1900 midnight on76°E longitude.

(c) Sheeghrochcha : The characteristics which define an orbit are (i) Apogee (ii)Perigee * (iii) inclination. Apogee is the farthest & perigee is the nearest point on theorbit. The inclination of orbit is the angle which it makes with the equator.

To find out mean Longitude, following method is adopted :-

Calculate the time interval from epoch to day of birth & multiply the same by meanmotion of planet & change during interval is obtained. Change is added or subtractedfrom mean position at the time of epoch. Thus the mean position is arrived at.

Sun & 257-4568°

Mars & 270-22°

Jupiter & 220-04°

Saturn & 236-74°

Mean position of inferior planets i.e. Mercury & Venus is the same as that of Sun.

Sheeghrochcha of superior planets i.e. Mars, Jupiter & Saturn is the same as meanposition of Sun. Sheeghrochcha of Mercury & Venus at epoch is 164° & 328.51°respectively.

Chesta Kendra = Planet's Sheeghrochcha -

If Chesta kendra exceeds 180°, the same is subtracted from 360°.

Chesta Bala

Chesta bala is zero when Chesta kendra is zero & when Chesta kendra is 180°,Chesta Bala is 60 Shashtiamsa. Sun's Chesta Bala is its Ayana bala whereas Moon'schesta bala is its Paksha Bala.

Mean Longitude of Planets

To find out mean longitude the interval between date of birth & epoch is calculated -Deduct 1900 from year of birth & multiply the same by 365 and to this product add theintervening bi-sextile days. The following table will be useful for calculating interval.

Table XVI - Days from 1st January to the end of month

January 31 July 212

February 59 August 243

March 90 September 273

April 120 October 304

May 151 November 334

June 181 December 365

P.S. Add one day for February in leap year.

Now let us find out total time interval in example horoscope. Longitude of Delhi is77°13' Date of birth & time is 22.1.2000 at 16.40 hrs.

Longitude of place of birth 77°13'

" Epoch 76°00'

Difference 1°13'= 5 minute (Approx.)

Therefore mean time at place of epoch = (16 hrs 40 mts - 5mts = 16hrs 35 mts.

From midnight to 16 hrs 35 mts = 16 hrs 35mt.

= 16.58 hrs - 0.69 day

Total interval will therefore be

(2000-1900) x 365 = 36500 + 25 (Bi-sextile days)

= 36525 + 21 (From Jan 1st to 21st Jan) +0.69 (From midnight to time of birth)

36546.69 days

The interval is multiplied by mean daily motion of planets which is obtained by usingtables given below. In this mean position of planets at epoch is added & by subtractingmultiples of 360°, we can get the mean position of planets at birth. Now let us calculatethe mean position of planets at given birth time.

Calculation of Sheeghrochcha

Sheeghrochcha of Mars, Jupiter & Saturn is the same as mean longitude of Sun.Therefore we have to calculate Sheeghrochcha of mercury & Venus only. We willtake the help of Table Nos. XX & XXI.

Sheeghrochcha of Mercury

Total interval - 36,546.69 days

For 30,000 days 9.546,000 '' 73.91500 '' 246.1640 '' 163.696 '' 24.550.69 '' 2.82

Constant at epoch 164.00Correction = (6.67 - 0.00133 t*) + _6. 537

= 6.67 - 0.00133 ×100 691.207

= 6.69 - 0.133

= 6.537* t = (Birth year -1900)

Subtracting multiple of 360°, the Sheeghrochcha of Mercury is 331-227

Sheeghrochcha of V enus

30,000 days - 184.396,000 '' 252.88500 '' 81.0740 '' 64.096 '' 9.610.69 '' 1.104

Less Correction (5+0.0001 t) (-) 5.01= (5 + .0001 × 100) 588.134 = 5.01

Subtracting multiples of 360°, Sheeghrochcha is 228.134°.

6. Naisargik Bala orPermanent S trength

Each planet has certain permanent strength irrespective of its position in Zodiac. Thisstrength depends upon the luminosity of planet. Sun, being brightest of all planets hasmaximum Naisargika bala whereas Saturn, being darkest of all planets has the leastnaisargika bala. The planets having decreasing naisargika bala are in the order ofSun. Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Saturn.

The Naisargika bala of each planet is as under :-

Table XXVIII- Naisargika Bala of Planet s

Planet Naisargika Bala (Shashtiamsa)

Sun 60-00

Moon 51-43

Venus 42-85

Jupiter 34-28

Mercury 25-70

Mars 17-14

Saturn 8-57

The above strength is obtained by subtracting 60/7=8.57 from the strength of precedingplanet.

Naisargika Bala has significance in Shadbala specially when some planets haveapproximate equal strength after adding Sthan bala, Dik bala, Kala bala, Chesta bala& Drik bala.

7. Drik Bala or Aspect S trengthAll planets powerfully aspect the 180th degree from their position. A planet cannotaspect another planet or bhava within 30° in front of it & 60° behind it. Therefore aspectof a planet commences from 30° from planet & stops at 300th degree from the planet.The aspect strength varies from 30° to 300° as under :-(i) Commences from 30° & gradually increases till at 60° aspect value is 15

Shashtiamsa.(ii) Value continues to increase till at 90 it becomes 45 Shashtiamsa.(iii) From 90° the aspect value starts decreasing & it becomes 30 Shashtiamsa at

120°.(iv) From 120° to 150°, the aspect value falls & at 150° it becomes zero.(v) From 150° to 180°, there is a sudden jump & maximum aspect value of 60

Shashtiamsa is obtained at 180°.(v) Again aspect value diminishes gradually till at 300° it becomes zero.Aspect angle is found by subtracting longitude of aspecting planet from that of aspected

planet.Aspect angle = Long. of Aspected body - Long. of Aspecting bodyIf aspect angle is negative, 360° are added in it.

Aspect value can be represented graphically as under :-

Special Aspect (V ishesh Drishti)Some planets have special aspect in addition to their usual aspect.Saturn has special aspect on 3rd (60-90°) &10th

(270-300°) housesJupiter has special aspect on 5th (120-150°) & 9th

(240-270°) housesMars has special aspect on 4th (90-120°) & 8th

(210-240°) houses

Special aspects values of mars, Jupiter & Saturn are 15, 30 & 45 Shashtiamsarespectively. In ordinary aspect value, special aspect value should be added.Shubha & Pap a Drishti : Aspect Cast by benefic planets is Shubha Drishti (+ veaspect) & denoted by + ve sign. The aspect Cast by malefic planet is Papa drishti (-veaspect) & denoted by - ve sign.Calculation of Drik BalaFor calculation of Drik Bala we have first to find, aspect angle between different planets.The aspect angles in example horoscope have been calculated as per Table XXIVgiven below :-After calculation of aspect angles between different planets, Drishti Pinda is calculatedwhich is sum total of Drishti value (Aspect value) of all aspecting planets over aspectedplanets. This may be positive or negative depending upon whether aspect is of beneficplanet or malefic planet.

In the example horoscope Moon is benefic while Mercury is malefic. The Drishti Pindawill be calculated as under :-

If strength of sub lord predominates over main lord, results will be that indicated

by sub-lord. In example horoscope Kashta Phala of Sun, mercury, Venus & Saturn is

more than Ishta Phala & therefore bad results are expected during period of these

planets.q

IInd Bhava : IInd Bhava falls in cancer sign which has full strength in 4th Bhava.Therefore subtracting from 10 we get 4. This multiplied by 10 gives Bhava dig bala of2nd Bhava as 40 Shashtiamsa.

IIIrd Bhava : IIIrd Bhava falls in Leo sign which has full strength in 10th Bhava. Thereforecounting from 4th Bhava, we get 11. This being more than 6 is subtracted from 12 toget 1. This multiplied by 10 gives Bhava dig bala of 3rd Bhava as 10 Shashtiamsa.

IVth Bhava : IVth Bhava falls in Virgo sign which has full strength in ascendant.Therefore counting from 7th Bhava we get 9. This being than more 6 is subtractedfrom 12 to get 3. The Bhava dig bala of IVth Bhava is therefore 30 Shashtiamsa.

Vth Bhava : Vth Bhava falls in Libra sign which has full strength in ascendant. Thereforecounting from 7th Bhava we get 10. This after subtraction from 12 is 2. Therefore digbala of 5th Bhava is 20 Shashtiamsa.

VIth Bhava : VIth Bhava falls in Scorpios sign which has full strength in 7th Bhava.Therefore counting from ascendant we get 5. Dig bala of VIth Bhava is therefore 50Shashtiamsa.

VIIth Bhava : VIIth Bhava falls in 2nd half of Sagittarius sign which has full digbala in10th Bhava. Therefore counting from 4 we get 3 & therefore dig bala of VIIth Bhava is30 Shashtiamsa.

VIIIth Bhava : VIIIth Bhava falls in 2nd of half Capricorn sign which has full digbala in4th Bhava. Therefore counting from 10 we get 10 which being more than 6 is subtractedfrom 12 to get 2. Therefore digbala of VIIIth Bhava is 20 Shashtiamsa.
